GREAT STREETS INITIATIVE SOUTH GRAND: Public Meeting and Design Charrette Announcement

Good Evening Everyone,

South Grand Great Streets Project News from Alderwoman Florida

Dear Neighbor,

As your alderman I take seriously any action that affects the quality of life here in our neighborhood.

Last week, I was summoned to a hastily organized meeting in the mayor's office. The improvements to South Grand have been fast-tracked by the metropolitan planning organization called East-West Gateway. They have retained a design firm to engage the community and offer a redesign of Grand Boulevard between Arsenal and McDonald.
